Note: Many states have antiquated scope laws. Georgia wins the gold ring. Our law was
written in 1921 and except for a few revisions has not been changed since. The insurance
industry and the medical lobbyists are picking on the small print to deny payment and
suppress our growth. Recently, a consensus of ideas has been reached between the two
state associations and Life University and a revised scope law is ready for the legislature. I
recommend that every Georgia DC get politically involved this legislative year and push our
new scope bill through. Contribute to your political action committee of your association
and if not a member contribute anyway. You can read about the urgency on my webpage
by linking to Chiropractic News. I contribute monthly and you should too.
E-mail message this week .. something new
As many veteran chiropractors know, the best way to keep passion and excitement in a
practice is patient results and confidence that you have the tools to help. So many doctors
graduate college with a minimum bag of adjusting tricks and spend so little time adding
more and honing their skills even further. Challenging their level of knowledge or sharing
and comparing their expertise with colleagues or patients is never often considered
important. This usually begins the process of early burn out and professional low self-
esteem. End result being a lethargic practice with piss poor financial success. One answer
is to add spice to your office by trying something new.
Since my discussion today is about procedures and adjusting skills, I recommend you
consider adding services and techniques used little or never before. For instance, if you
never recommend nutrition, start now. Many vendors would welcome your inquiry and
offer study aids or set you up for license renewal continued educational courses. This is
also true for rehabilitative exercises. All patients can benefit from exercises and if you have
limited space it is no problem, as many vendors have exercise stations taking just a little
room on a wall. What about durable products such as pillows, lumbar cushions, orthotics,
support belts etc. These all benefit our patients and besides an increase in revenue, you will
be surprised how patients respond with these added and enhanced features of your practice.
Technique change may stretch your comfort zone but may be the answer to your practice
malaise. This past weekend during the LUCC homecoming, I sat through more than 20
hours of CE credited classes. There was something for everyone from rehabilitation,
nutrition and technique. Watching one doctor scan patients and muscle test others prior to
using traditional adjusting protocol then cold laser and more was exciting and all new to
me. Listening to another doctor piece the science behind our techniques while comparing
right and left brain with the chemical interactions of physiology was eye opening and
stimulated my right and left brain to begin incorporating this during patient evaluations. The
key is implementation and continued levels of knowledge.
I returned to the office on Monday and started challenging some patients which stimulating
their interest as well. Trying something new actually awakened my level of excitement and
I anticipate more as I learn more and see the increased results with my patients.
I recommend you try something new as well
Have a Great Day
